EMERG Capacity-Building Workshop on Quality of Service and Resilience of Mobile Infrastructure for Regulatory Authorities

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) - the Eastern Partnership Electronic Communications Regulators Network (EaPeReg) - the Euro-Mediterranean Regulators Group (EMERG) Capacity-Building Workshop on Quality of Service and Resilience of Mobile Infrastructure for Regulatory Authorities is taking place from 14-15 October 2025 in Nicosia, Cyprus.
This event, co-organized by the ITU and the Digital Security Authority of Cyprus builds on the success of the 2023 Interregional CyberDrill for Europe and Asia-Pacific held in Cyprus. This activity is implemented in partnership with ITU-D sector member, Rohde & Schwarz.
The workshop will be held within the framework of the ITU Regional Initiatives for Europe on digital infrastructure development, and the one on trust and confidence in the use of telecommunications/ICTs. It aims to equip regulatory authorities with the tools and knowledge needed to ensure resilient, high-quality mobile infrastructure while promoting collaboration and knowledge-sharing among regulatory bodies from EMERG, EaPeReg, and other European agencies.
Key topics will include the future of mobile infrastructure, with a focus on how 5G is revolutionizing industries beyond traditional broadband. The sessions will highlight vertical applications, real-world case studies, and the opportunities and challenges of deploying next-generation networks. Cybersecurity will also be a central theme, with expert discussions on emerging threats to 5G, risk mitigation strategies, and insights into the EU’s security measures and regulatory frameworks for safeguarding critical infrastructure.
